Hi all!
The unpredictability of the current world situation strikes again.
As you may be aware or not, the US government introduced new Customs Tariff regulations that remove the $800 “de minimis” rule – i.e., if the order value was below $800, then no import tax was applied. So, from the 29th of August, all US orders coming to the US will be subject to a customs duty of 10%. Sadly, nothing we can do about it.
But that’s not the worst part. From August 29th, it will be us, the seller, who will need to collect the customs duty from the customer and pay it to US Customs. The problem here is that there is currently no information about any working solution or details on how that will work. Asiad, the typical laconic statements that there will be some “system”.
This, as you can imagine, creates a big uncertainty on our end, as we have no clue how to approach the problem until further updates.
We will temporarily stop accepting orders to the US at the end of next week (August 24, 2025) to avoid any potential issues.
If you are looking to order from us, it’s time to do so to avoid any extra customs fees.
Please note, this only applies to US customers!
